We love feedback. Some things we can change and improve, some things we can't.
Recent comments have included a couple of items that we simply cannot improve, but still are good to know about when visiting Marfa.
First of all, very active train tracks run through the center of town. Marfa was founded as a water stop for the trains. Freight trains pass through several times each day and night, and the Amtrak runs through several times per week, unless there is work being performed on the tracks (in which case you may notice the lack of trains).
Marfa has three grade crossings, and the trains blow their horns regardless of the time. The train signal for approaching a grade crossing is two longs, a short, and a long. Nowhere in town are the horns not audible. This applies to the hotels as well as any VRBO in town.
We don't really notice the train at night, especially after the first night. Our friend from New York spent an entire month in Marfa and never got used to the train though.
We do keep a stash of earplugs in the kitchen drawer so help yourself if you need them. So far, no one has opened the package, but they are there for you.
